My first time ever doing this and I just finished with the car for the night, still need to tweak the suspension.. gotta lower the *** more but I'm happy with the front.

Sorry for the shitty picture quality.. they are cell phone pics and we were rushing to get out of there.

The spoiler was put on by the car's previous owner, I plan on ditching it when I can.

Hands down Stance suspension is the best when it comes to slamming your car to the ground

with that said, you should hold off just a little longer, because I am about to test some prototype coilovers that will be dedicated to slammed Z/Gs. That means the right spring right, right valving to accommodate the spring rate and shorter struts.. Going to be huge for the Z/G world..

So stay tune..



Eric just get the shorter spring for the rear from BC, or sell and buy some new ones..



It sound like you need to add a bigger spacer. And this is why you go with a more aggressive offset/width so you will have the flush + Poke...
Royal,

Thanks man so just wait to order the stance then. Wat prototype r u talking about?? r they coming out with a new set or wat

So that means the bottom part of the wheels sticks out but the top part have to camber in the fenders more. Compared to someone not as low they have room so when they do hit a bump or dip the wheels have room to camber in. Not sure if that makes sense.
Hahaha..yea man it makes total sense I went from looking flush with eibach sportlines to looking my wheels looking sunk (18x11 rear) when my coilovers were installed (by way thanks to edafe )

Rides good but won't go low enough for me. I'm on the shorter springs but still not getting as low as I want to go. This is my ride maxed out on BC in the rears on the old 19s. (Ignore the rotas, they have been replaced :P)

Ha, give me another week brotha. Edafe is coming over tomorrow morning to do his magic on the fenders. Meanwhile I'm picking up some 225s to replace the 235s I originally bought for the fronts.

In the mean time check out this new Reggie Watts video to hold you over.
